“PRATER GLACIS”: 10,000 m³ concrete used

The urban development project “PRATER GLACIS” by IG Immobilien is progressing rapidly. Recently, another milestone was reached on the construction site at Perspektivstraße 4-10 near the Prater: 10,000 cubic meters of concrete – equivalent to 125,000 wheelbarrows – have already been used.

The celebration on the “PRATER GLACIS” site, where three innovative building concepts are currently under construction, was organised by the building contractor Wilfling Hoch- und Tiefbau GmbH. The event marks another important milestone, as with the 10,000 cubic meters of concrete, half of the building material required for the project has now been used. “The ‘Concrete Party’ was a great opportunity to pay tribute to the workers at the PRATER GLACIS construction site and to celebrate the progress of the project,” says Hermann Klein, Managing Director at IG Immobilien, who attended the festivities.

Three units are currently under construction on the 9,500 m² site. From autumn 2020, they will be home to innovative hotel concepts by Hampton by Hilton, Superbude and ZOKU as well as to the Vienna University of Economics and Business.
